Slow Heart Rate

So far I have passed out twice (once at work and once at home), went to the Emergency Room they referred me to a Cardiologist whom I saw yesterday. He says that my heart rate is too low, at 50. So they are going to do a ultra sound of my heart, a Tilt test, and a stress test. The stress test is what I am worried about. Had one of those 10+ years ago and I was a lot healthier than.

Hi Survivor4ever, I am glad you are getting things checked out and it sounds like you have a good Cardiologist. I am sending good thoughts your way. Please keep us updated on how you are doing. Hugs.

Hang in there. It will be good for you to know why your passing out. Don't stress over the stress test. The last thing we lupies need is more stress in our lives. Good luck and let us know what you find out.
